TablePress

The good part is that TablePress is super simple to use and setup. It is also free.

My main gripe with TablePress is that it looks like an old HTML implementation of a table. The styling looks basic to me. If you’re good at CSS, then you can most likely make the table look great.

And if you good at CSS, you already knew that! I don’t know CSS so I am stuck with the default style.

Websimon Tables

Later, Perrin told me about a nicer looking plugin called, Websimon. I used it on a few sites and I really do like the way it displays.

Unfortunately, it looks like the plugin isn’t supported anymore and is a bit of a security risk.

But it does look great…

Azon Tables

I am an affiliate for Azon Tables so I will get a commission if you purchase the plugin. And, if you do, I really appreciate the support!

Azon Tables is a new plugin on the market by a rather unknown web developer that goes by Alchemy Coder. He reached out to me with a free copy of the plugin – confident I would feel it was good enough to add to my best product comparison table for wordpress post here.

Azon Tables Looks & Works Great on ALL Screen Sizes

As more and more of your website traffic is coming from mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, you’ll be glad you built your comparison tables with Azon Tables.

Azon Tables responsive settings are like no other plugin I’ve seen before. These comparison table are fully mobile optimized.

The main way that Azon Tables makes your tables display perfectly on all screen sizes, is by hiding certain columns on certain screen sizes. You can create as many columns of data specifications as you would like, then hide columns of your choosing for various screen sizes. The hidden information can then be toggled open and closed spo the visitor does not lose any important information.

Example of an Azon Table

Here is a product comparison table built with Azon Tables and all information below was pulled automatically with the Amazon API. The prices are auto-updating, the images are compliant, the columns are sortable, the “features” are displayed or hidden by clicking the blue plus or minus, it is searchable, filterable, and has multiple pages of results.

Azon Tables Conclusion

They are great looking and will definitely add to the slickness of your affiliate sites. There is also a 30 day money back guarantee so you have nothing to lose.

Hey Doug, This is Dave here – creator of WP CompPEAR. Thanks for including my new plugin in your Best Comparison Table Roundup!

I also just wanted to note that WP ComPEAR is just in version 1.0.0 and this is just the start. I didn’t want to overload it with unwanted or confusing options and settings, but I’ll push out new features quickly based on real user feedback.

So if anybody decides to purchase WP ComPEAR during this sale, (which is the cheapest it will ever be right now) … please share your feedback with me on it and we can make it the ultimate product comparison plugin!

P.S. Ask any of my customers, I offer the BEST support and customer service I possibly can, every time, for every customer.

I’ll be releasing an update soon after the launch sale for WP ComPEAR and fully responsive tables will be included in it, along with some new options.

WP ComPEAR is brand new and on version 1.0. It still hasn’t been through multiple rounds of feedback and updates/optimization yet. I’ll be updating it regularly based off user feedback.

The real benefit of buying it now is that you will get lifetime updates and support for an EXTREMELY low price in exchange for being an early adopter. It’s the lowest price it will ever be between 10/6/2015 – 10/19/2015.

Dave’s product looks awesome, probably the best plugin out there to build comparison tables. It looks like it’s missing a few features that would really help like having a “Select options” field or a Boolean (Yes/No) with icons rendering. Other than that, great job, I’ll be happy to purchase it once I see those features.

Hi Xavier, thanks for the comment! WP ComPEAR is just in it’s first iteration right now, and I am continuously adding new features and upgrades to it. My plan is to release it in it’s basic form, obtain genuine user feedback, and improve it and add new features based off what my customers really want. I’ve pushed out 2 small updates with optimizations already, and I’m working on a larger update with new features too.

I love you idea of the boolean fields with icons – I’ll add it to my list of updates for sure. I’m not exactly sure what you mean by “select option” though …

Just so everybody knows, I’m offering lifetime updates and support for now as the plugin is in it’s early stages – but once it has grown more, that will be reduced to 1 year of updates and support included in the initial purchase, with additional years available on a yearly renewal basis.

So buying it now grandfathers you in to the lifetime updates and support! That’s my gift for being an early adopter and helping to improve the plugin through feedback.

One other thing to note is that WP ComPEAR does not focus on just tables, it has 3 different comparison tool display options – with a 4th one I’m planning coming in a future update. – so it may never have all of the options that plugins focusing on only tables have. But he, we’ll see what my customers want!

Do you have a link to buy Dave? The market is crying out for a quality wo plugin comparison table and if you keep up the good work and improve on it i’m sure you will make loads of it, hell I will promote it on my blog once its up and running.

For a user, I just want to be able to slide and add what products I want to compare with and it seems your plugin does that. But let’s let me buy it and I’ll come back to you with feedback

Hi Mohammed, The prices do not auto-update because WP ComPEAR does not connect to Amazon in any way. You crate your own fields and fill them out manually. WP ComPEAR isn’t just another Amazon plugin, it can be used to compare anything!

Hey Doug. Thanks for letting me post this here in the comments! I’m Alchemy Coder and I have a new Comparison Tables plugin option for anybody to try. It pulls all images, prices, and data from the Amazon API, is 100% responsive, and has a lot of settings & styling options. It’s feature rich.

So if Compliance with the Amazon Affiliate TOS is important to you, check it out …
